"He is removing time out from his chaotic schedule and having closed door meetings to get a sense of how things are shaping up," an insider revealed.

"Amitji does not like to disturb his shooting schedules, so while the shooting when he takes a break for lunch, he does a working lunch and meets the team to check on developments. And if anything is pending, he waits back after shoot to discuss it," the source added.

Besides sharing tips on marketing, he has also been regularly meeting the core team involved in the promotion of the series.
